Photoshop Help Please
Would someone be so kind as to 'paint' these calipers red for me? I'm thinking about painting them.
Thanks in advance

A while ago I got bored over the winter here and painted mine red. Regretted it. Next brake job they go back to black.

I am always amazed at how many people get bent out of shape over what color your brake calipers are (not condemning anyone mind you, I think most who have posted here are doing so in kind ribbing). If you like them red, go for it!

Mark is a good friend of mine. What kind of friend would I be if I stood idly by while he painted his Turbo calipers red?

I'd never do it for real, but always glad to use my (limited) Photoshop skills for a fellow 'can.
Early 930 brakes are far too cool in black to ever paint, IMHO (cuz I'd love to have a set, and I would keep 'em black - but they are way too much money for me)-as to the fronts - what are those? Brembos? eh, whatever, but I think th setup is fine the way it is.

First thank you herr-oberst. Limited skills?? Wow they look awesome, in fact to good. Will make the decision hard.
Thanks all for the input. Shaun & Mark you guys take care and will see you this spring/summer. Shane you're right, it's like the purest vs. the customizer. Some like things to be their own others like to keep things original.
